Explanation

- Proper punctuation includes a comma before the quote, and the question mark inside the quotation marks.

- Also, “teaching” should not be capitalized unless it's a proper noun.

Explanation

- Subject: The teacher (singular)  

- Verb: must agree in number with the subject.

"Gives" is the singular present tense form (used with singular subjects like "he/she/it" or "the teacher").
